This should give a good idea of my condition requirements. One of my favorite cards in my collection and it was given to me by a fellow OBCer.

And a prewar beater that I love since it once belonged to Lionel Carter.

I generally don’t care about condition but will not buy moldy cards unless they are graded (figure that keeps all the grossness contained) and will not buy cards that were maliciously defaced. For example, I have a Venezuelan Topps card that someone wrote “retirado” on when the player retired. I prefer it to the clean copy I had. I will not, however, buy a Yankees card where some kid crossed out the Yankees symbol and drew a Red Sox symbol. I like cards that were loved by their prior owners, even if that led to a little extra wear.

Generally not a fan of creases through the face or pieces missing. Pinholes aren't too goo either. But sometimes you have to take what you can...

This card is cool looking.

Looks like Jimmy Fox is playing in the fog

Or coming out of the fog in a bad B Movie to Kill someone with a bat

I don't mind altered as long as it's not too noticeable, but I can't stand OC. I can deal with minor centering issues, but not 70/30 or worse.
